Finally by the end of weekend I was able to cut, glue, solder, and wire things up.
These light look "AMAZING!" The corals really "pop" and can't beleive what a significant improvement they make. I really like the added "shimmer" effect too.
I went with two 18 led strips, one strip has 18 royal blues, the second, has 14 royal blues and 4 430 ultra violet. The 430s give a nice effect.
I actually think that the second strip might not be necessary, so it may be for sale in the very near future
Thanks to Blob, for making this order happen and to Phi for hooking me up with the heatsinks.
Because there are so many buildthreads, I didn't want to be redundant.
..where the magic happens....
...a pic of a strip resting upside down on top of my tank....
I will post more pics soon, when I get a chance to pull out a better camera.
BTW, these things run pretty warm at full power, not too bad when dialed down. Gonna grab a fan when things get permanently mounted inside my canopy.
